Census Bureau integration for AI agents

The Census Bureau Data API provides developers with access to a wide range of statistical data collected by the U.S.

Use it from your agent

One ClawLink account serves every agent you run. Pick the guide for yours, or connect Census Bureau once and call the same tools from all of them.

Setup

Connect Census Bureau through ClawLink's hosted setup.

  • Auth: Paste one API key. The credential stays on the ClawLink server; your agent holds only a ClawLink key you can revoke.
  • Where: the ClawLink dashboard, or ask your agent to connect it.
